Resumo: The main focus of volunteer program will be mainly at the free time activity centre for children and youth threatened by social exclusion.
This is a town with cca 25000 citiziens, it lies right on the boarders with Poland. The town itself has a very rich history, cultural and sports facilities. Because the borders between the Czech and Poland go straight through the town, there are many opportunities to explore both cultures. There are two cinemas, two theatres, some music clubs and pubs. This town is also quite well known for the theatre festival. There is also a fitness centre, bowling club, few sports clubs and more.
The town is easily reached by public transport (bus, train). There are quite a few opportunities for cycling; many biking trails are made in the town and in its surroundings. There could be a bike at volunteer´s disposal so he/she can move more easily around town and outskirts.
It's also very easy to visit other towns and cities in this area (good bus or train connection)- where you can find swimming pools and many sporting and fitness centres, socially and culturally rich towns with theatres, cinemas, clubs, bars, pubs, art galleries etc. There are also opportunities for a further education, art courses, a vast network of services.
The town is also close to the mountains, where there are many opportunities for hiking, biking, and other leisure activities.
The organization itself is located at a less attractive location in the city because that way we are very close to the children and youth in need, who live mainly in this area. The organization is situated in an old after-school care building. The building itself is not ideal, and despite all our efforts to ensure the best possible conditions for all free- time activities, it is obvious that the building is old and it's maintenance is difficult. We are now arranging all things needed to move to a better suited building so in near future, these conditions will be improved.
We employ about 5 workers in total at the organization. The facilities hold a few rooms. One entrance, an office, rooms for social activities and sport, art room with ceramic kiln, special room for private counselling.
The hosting organization has it's office at the town. It's situated in an old villa with classrooms of a free-time language centre Fabule, rooms where we educate teachers. The town are located about 20km from the town and accessible by bus or train connection.
There are other social organisations in this area, working in a similar field as us and they also cooperate with volunteers, so that might be a good contact point for our volunteers.
We will provide volunteer´s accommodation probably by renting an apartment in the town (there is also a possibility to have an accommodation). The catering can be ensured by regular lunches in the restaurant near Strep or individually - according to the agreement with the volunteer, he/she will have an opportunity to cook in the place of accommodation. Our staff will be ready to give him/her information about possibilities of catering in this area.
